The core gameplay loop has issues because you don't actually have a core gameplay loop. Clicking around on a grid with the occasional dice roll event popping up between fixed event locations is not complex enough to be considered a gameplay loop.
Getting off-topic, but "gameplay loop" can be simple, and there's literally decades worth of popular games which demonstrate this. All the discussion how it must be "complex" or no-true-scotsmanning it is just intellectual wankery on the level of movie critique.

(that said, i've given my opinion on the map component some time ago upthread, and no, it wasn't "they should make it more complicated", quite the opposite)

does anyone know when the real power in Bloodmeen option gets released?
I haven't decided on the order yet.
Gods help me, the full list of things remaining to be done in Astarte is:

1. Second variant of the bonus sex scene.
2. Rowan Participating in battle.
3. Rowan Taking control of the council.
4. Rowan sabotaging the battle.
5. Zii-Zii alliance during the goblin plot, all routes.
6. Che-Lin alliance during the goblin plot, all routes.
7. Tue-San alliance during the goblin plot, all routes.
8. Helayna participation in the battle.
9. Fae bonus Astarte content.

Participating in the battle is necessary for both Control and Sabotage, so it will release alongside one of the routes. I am leaning towards doing control first, and hope I don't bury myself neck deep in variables.

But it will all be worth it in the end. THE GAME WILL TAKE INTO ACCOUNT YOUR PAST DECISIONS, AS IT ALWAYS SHOULD HAVE.

Which one is the bonus sex scene? I've seen Andras, Alexia and X'zaratl get scenes. And I guess Jezera's scene with the noble?

I've update the Scene Replay mod for 0.4.05 (download is in the original post). Let me know if you have any issues.

Edit: It was mentioned below that the scenes from 0.4.04, and possibly 0.4.03, are gone. I'll update these later and release a new version for 0.4.05 with the missing content, but it'll take a bit of time. See my message below for further info.

Hi thanks for the quick update. I made an account specifically to get your mod for the game because unlocking some CGs was just impossible for me. I downloaded the latest mod version and i unlocked the extended scenes but some CGs are still missing. Is this intended or did i install it incorrectly?

Nice to finally get the first Che-Lin event. The writing was rather rough, but I liked it overall. Hope we get more of her with the next update.

Looking over the Astarte task list, I assume the Blackholt questline has to be wrapped up before it can be properly integrated into the battle? Because the remaining Blackholt tasks as I understand them are:

1. Implement Zii-Zii's ending
2. Implement Tue-San's ending
3. Implement the rest of Che-Lin's route (Event 2, Event 3, and her ending)
4. Cleanup + variants, if necessary (Ex: Che-Lin showing up at the wedding if you did her route but didn't choose to ally with her)

Then there's the Rastedel update that supposedly includes a route for successfully seizing the entire city (and at minimum has to be substantially refactored to include the presence of the goblins either alongside the orcs or acting as the only assaulting force) and the Rastedel epilogue that ties off Act 1. Then there are the remaining NPC arcs that need to be finished out as well. Considering the game is only due for three more updates this year, it seems unlikely it'll be finished by the end of 2024.

Its intended for the scene replays, you have to watch those replays to unlock the missing cgs

Sorry, but it seems that mostbof the new scenes fron the v.0.4.04 have dissapeared
You're right; but unfortunately this isn't the mod, and it looks like the scenes from 0.4.03 are missing as well from the base game. If you just extract the 0.4.05 game, the gallery only goes up to #238 and it should be going up to #249. It's as if the base game's scene gallery has rolled back 2 releases.

For now, if you want the new scenes from 0.4.05, use the mod with the 0.4.05 release. If you want the scenes before that, use the 0.4.04 mod with the 0.4.04 release of the game. I'll get a fix out as soon as possible for the missing scenes from 0.4.03 and 0.4.04, but I might need to re-add all the scenes from those two releases so it'll take a bit of time.

I feel like content release will get even slower now. They lost that one writer AND an artist so I can't imagine anything beyond piecemeal scenes that don't advance the plot. All I want is the God damn next chapter, this goblin side path is taking forever. I wanna see the guard captain again.
